Been wanting to find this one for a while, at least since I had found DavidNessies' other ones in the area. Managed to sneak in after work, even with families afoot. TFTC

Quick find here. Just the way we like it. Love your work.Cleaning up Victoria with gridge98. We are on a mission this week. Completing twenty finds in Mexican local government areas is the challenge. Another find with the correct criteria. It is in Victoria and we have not accumalated twenty finds in this local government area.Today was the day to find this cache. Today is Woden's day the sixteenth day of the octavus month of the Roman calendar in the wonderful year of twenty twenty four. We found your cache container and added some inky stuff to the paper sheet or note pad you have supplied for a log book or scroll. The cache container and log book or scroll were in good condition. It was a bit windy today. It was so windy today.With the log signed and the cache replaced it was time to leave. Onwards to the next cache. Woot, that is not to far.I would like to show my respect and acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the Land, and their continuing connection to it. I wish to pay my respects to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures; and to Elders past, present and emerging.I will apologize right now, because everything from here on is here solely for the purpose of padding the word count and winning that one hundred word diamond badge again. Somebody moved the goal posts. So many caches to find. So many caches to log. We find them, sign them and replace them.This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and an Apple iPhone 11 using the marvelous Cachly app. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs macro.Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun. Apologies for the generic part of the cache log. We do apologise for the generic logs. Thanks to all the cache owner for placing this cache here for our enjoyment.Thanks for the cache. Merci la cache. Danke fr den Cache. Gracias por el cach.

A nicely made cache here that has had a bit of work put into itTravelling around Victoria with Freddo for a week finding caches as we go. With two challenges on our radar we were in full force. All logs signed with our names or F+g98 for the smaller caches. Thanks for the cache

Great cache. Right in front of your nose if you look for the odd thing out. Uncap to explore the tiny cache world.

Bit of a late log, but better late than never! This took us embarrassingly longer to extricate than we'd like to admit, but (like writing this log) we got there eventually Smile TFTC!

Easy find

While wife potato visits her elderly Grandfather at a local aged care the rest of us potatoes went to look for a playground.Had a quick look on the app to see if there were any caches around and bingo. A playground with not only one but two caches close by.Once we arrived the place is ful of muggles so stealth was required which made it very exciting for the kids.With this cache the log was in there very tight, couldn't get out so signed a little peice of paper which fell out as we opened.Thanks for placing for us to find todayHAPPY INTERNATIONAL GEOCACHING DAY

In Melbourne visiting family. Watching grandson playing soccer. Hey I noticed 2 caches nearby. Yah. Eventually opened. Log too squeezy to get out. Signed a little piece of paper & left in cache. Tftc

It was a thrilling adventure, found with Bonyx22 - was puzzled for a while but once we found it we were joyous, did take longer than expected but a great spot and happy to announce its still attached:)
 
12-Jul-24
Found it with MerlinsGeocache! Was searching for a while but elated once we pulled it out, so cleverly constructed and really was hidden in plain sight once you figure it out! Was a journey but we got there TFTC
 
11-Jul-24
TFTC! Perhaps we over thought the extraction a little at first! But love a carefully constructed custom cache! Much respect to the original creator.

This cache was a DNF for me a few years ago. Now, as a more experienced catcher, I was able to find it in a jiffy. Love the creativity!

Very very clever hide. Coords were throwing me off a bit but quick find once I was in the right spot. TFTC!!
 
17-Feb-24
Heading over to the beach side suburbs for dinner with family... and left early enough to stop off for a few caches while travelling through the Monash LGA. First stop was this cache... very clever hide. Fortunately no muggles around while recovering the cache itself to sign the log. Thanks **Mister Doctor** for keeping this cache going.
 
22-Jan-24
We through this one was nicely designed and we're glad the cache has been kept going by Mister Doctor. We had an idea what we might find here. Once a suitable gap in the foot traffic occurred we zeroed in and made the find. A fav for the construction. TFTC

As we rocked up to GZ, we immediately noticed something that caught our attention. Only had to wait out a couple of passing muggles, then we practically pounced on the cache.

Neat hide.

R.I.P DavidNessie. Thank you Mister Doctor for adopting this fun cache and keeping it in the game for us all to enjoy.

Ray Tay and dog gay found. Really great hiding spot!
 
20-May-23
Found it! I’m quite enjoying caching in the dark, no Muggles to contend with but it does make navigating a bit tricky. Once at GZ it was a quick find. Very nice construction. TFTC SL Favourite point added. ️

Thanks, nice to find on a sunny day.
 
19-Apr-23
Once again I’d left logging a cache for the day pretty late but I had to grab some stuff for dinner at the Glen so this one was only a small detour.

This was a nice quick find but a very well hidden and constructed cache. Log signed and replaced as found.

Happy to report that the cache is in good condition and the log nice and dry.

A forced break from early voting meant I could participate in a CITO nearby, so I took the opportunity for a walk afterwards.

Though there were a fair few people enjoying the fine evening, there was nobody in sight when I spotted this cache.

A clever one indeed.

Thanks, DavidNessie (and Mister Doctor for keeping this neat bit of work in play).

28,800. Found with minniek during our Whittlesea Mega Adventure Trip. Alternatively signed as fitzy & minniek, F65 & MK, MAFS, WCCG or similar depending on who we were with at the time.

Yesterday we headed off on our next Mega Adventure. We aimed for Oxley to camp for the night, but then we were offered a free camp behind the Milawa Pub which we gratefully accepted. A great dinner/drinks night was had. Early the next morning we headed off, checked out the Showgrounds, then came into town to start some serious caching. We then headed south to attend the three events down here, and filled in a few counties along the way. A nice quick find once at GZ. Very nicely set up. Signed the log, replaced the cache as found, then we headed off to the next one.

Thanks Mister Doctor !! Fav Point.

Whittlesea day 1

Found with fitzy_1965.

We arrived in Whittlesea just before 10am after staying overnight at a free camp in Milawa (great schnitty at the hotel).

A quick recon of the show grounds and we headed out for some caching.

A nice quick find here today.

Very cleverly hidden!

Today we concentrated on the Local Government Areas of Monash and Whitehorse as w worked towards two challenges. It was a warm day, overcast and quite humid. We found 24 caches and were really pleased with the overall quality of the caches and the hides. It was a good days caching.

Accurate coordinates led to a quick find of a very well designed and presented cache. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks DavidNessie for the original placement of the cache and to Mister Doctor for maintaining the cache. It earns a favourite from us.

We had just been visiting the RSPCA and knew these couple of caches were not far away at Tally Ho. The rain hadn’t come yet so we thought why not!
The youngest veevers was impressed with the playground cube and played on this to provide decoy while we made the find. A clever one indeed.
RIP DavidNessie. Thanks for contributing to the game and thankyou to Mister Doctor for making sure that his caches remain in play.

Learner-offspring-at-uni caching time again.
Spotted this cache on approach as I came from an unorthodox direction.
It appeared to have been not reset properly or tampered with, but was all intact, so I reset as I thought it should be after signing.
An unusual and clever construction.
Thanks for keeping this cache in play Mister Doctor
